OK!.........All you OLD DC FARTS! Time to come out of hidding.

[esquared]

Yep, I remember that!

I'm curious as to your original name .....

We finally found his original name. It's RC

Thats it ? just RC ? or does that stand for something ? I have been here for over 20 years, and I don't remember that name,

Because he was posting in DC before you started and then left DC around Sept 2002.
Telling you this because I just got him access to his account today after 20+ years.

Maybe you can help/befriend an old-timer Mark.

Thats what I am hoping. I was actually on here before my listed start date in 2002, but I could not remember the login, so created the markfw900 account in 2002.

Well hopefully he posts in DC.
He replied to me saying the RC seems to work.

Welcome back

 

[Assimilator1]

RC? That does ring a vague bell, but I can't remember anymore than that off hand.
I wonder if he's in any of the saved threads I took from 2000 on?....
[edit] Yes I have! In an old 'ignore this thread' thread from Sept 2000! ...... damn, I can't attach a rar of it to this thread

I guess a measly screenshot will have to do, unless someone knows how else I could get that thread to here?
Aw I loved the look of the old forum and their faces!

 

[Slider76]

Assimilator1, I remember a few of those names...but then this would be my first post in over a decade

 

[Assimilator1]

Wow! That is a bit of break!
Welcome back then, I hope you pop in a little more often

Are you running DC anymore?

@RC I see you have your original name back , are you running DC anymore?
Btw, I see you posted here 10yrs ago, I hope you reply sooner this time lol

 

[Slider76]

I've just started back up on Folding @ Home. I can't believe the ppd that GPU's can produce these days. When I left a decade ago, 5,000 ppd was enough to get top 10 in the Team. Now a basic RTX 2060 puts out over 1.5m ppd!

 

[Assimilator1]

Yea modern GPUs put out insane ppd now!

 

[ericlp]

So is thread just for old farts... or can anyone join in?

 

[Orange Kid]

Physical age is not a requirement, I believe.
It's good to see you still hanging around.

 

[JC]

Holy ancient thread Batman!

Had to look through this....guess I never posted. So many familiar yet idle names Hopefully they just moved on, but not literally!

 

[bkiserx7]

I wish I was here sooner, but always happy to be here

 

[Skillz]

I sure hope some of you old farts have notifications turned on. Where ya'll been?

 

[VirtualLarry]

I'm here, limited to my phone cause I forgot my password, and I'm still logged in.

Oh no that's not good. PM an admin or moderator who can change your password to something you can remember. Or change your email address to one that you have access to so you can change your password yourself.

Also, check out my signature. Just in case things go below the waves.

Hey LANMAN , good to see ya, what you been upto?

 

[LANMAN]

Hey LANMAN , good to see ya, what you been up to?

Not too much lately.. thanks for asking. I have a few rigs I have are starting to show their age so scratching my head if I want to migrate the hardware to another chassis or not. I have 3 Dell Alienware-51 chassis which are great! They have 1500W power supplies and great ventilation.. etc.. , but one I think had a embedded MB chip go bad so the MB is toast.
Thought I'd pop in to say HI and see what everyone is up to.. always nice to see the stats on projects and see what everyone is working on.
